Philosophy

At My Little Love Bugs Childcare my mission is to provide a warm and nurturing childcare for families within the community by providing exceptional and quality childcare, in a home environment setting.

I believe that children are talented and capable little people who • Learn through play and exploration of their everyday surrounding • Need to express their creativity through art, music, dance, singing and their own creative ideas. • Are born with a sense of curiosity about the world around them.
